The events of his church service broadcast live via Emmanuel TV
on Sunday 23rd March 2014 proved to be no different as The
Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) witnessed the
confession of two lesbians who said ‘demons’ were behind their
lifestyle.
Maria Terese George from Delta State, Nigeria explained to the
congregation that her poverty-stricken background pushed her
to seek help from an older lady. However, she had ulterior
motives in promising to help the attractive 19 year old. Maria
explained while speaking in the packed church.
MORE AFTER THE CUT..................................
“She took me to a club where we went drinking. She took
me to her house and started touching me. Because I was
drunk, I responded. The day after this drunken encounter,
Maria (pictured above) had an unusual dream. A half-
naked lady came to me in the dream and fed me with rice,
stew and meat.”
Upon waking up, Maria’s affection for men disappeared and she
began to admire her fellow females.
“That was how the spirit of lesbianism entered me. I
noticed that whenever I saw a female that was busty and
curvy, I would always admire their features... I became a
chronic lesbian,” she admitted. The same lady who
introduced her to lesbianism brought her into a local
prostitution ring, assuring her that the riches she desired
could easily be attained. If I needed money, I would go to
meet men who were very rich – politicians and
businessmen – but if I wanted to enjoy sex or feel ‘real’
love, I would go for a woman.”
Prostitution led Maria to a neighbouring African country where
her immoral lifestyle seemed only to worsen. However, resources
disappeared as readily as they arrived. After several years of
frustration, she decided it was time to return to Nigeria.
“When I came back, I called some of my old partners for
connections,” Maria explained. “They started laughing at
me and told me they are now married with kids.” Maria was
perplexed. She never thought it possible for one to leave
lesbianism after tasting it.
“I was confused and asked them what they meant. All four
of them independently told me they went to T.B. Joshua’s
church for deliverance,” much to the delight of the
crowd. “Maybe The SCOAN doesn’t know that they have
delivered a lot of lesbians,” she added.
Making up her mind to visit the church based in Ikotun-Egbe,
Lagos, her resolve was immediately followed by a terrible
nightmare.
“That half-naked woman came to me in the dream and
said, ‘Look – you think you can leave me! Go and pick up a
knife and kill yourself.’ ” Upon waking, Maria immediately
packed her bags and left for The SCOAN that morning.
During the church service on Sunday 16th March 2014, one of
T.B. Joshua’s ‘Wise Men’ prayed for Maria and she experienced
the ‘deliverance’ her friends had spoken of.
“I have never experienced that type of thing before! I had
gone to other places for ‘deliverance’ but it didn’t go. That
is when I found myself even craving more for women.”
According to her, when prayed for, she began ‘manifesting’ and
a strange voice spoke through her. After the ‘deliverance’, Maria
testified to a total transformation.
“I no longer have affection for women. When I see any
woman, I don’t feel it again – I see you as a sister or as my
mother. I am seeing myself now as a woman that will settle
with a man.”
Advising people, the former lesbian told the congregation:
“This lesbian spirit is a very stubborn spirit – it takes the
grace of God for it to leave you.”
In his comments, T.B. Joshua said:
“Don’t hate the people; hate the act. Jesus loves the
sinner but hates the sin. Now you are delivered, it is time
to live in the Word,” he warned Maria. “Because of Christ,
you are delivered – for the salvation of your soul.”
The story of Nneoma Onyema was not so dissimilar. Running
away from home aged 18 and becoming a hair stylist in Port
Harcourt, Nigeria, a rich lady approached her in the salon one
day. After complimenting her appearance, she gave Nneoma
extra money and invited her to a high profile club. Intoxicating
the teen with alcohol, she awoke the next morning in bed with the
lady carousing her.
“She changed my name to Jennifer and took me to a man
who put tattoo of love on my back,” she explained to the
church.
Immediately after this encounter, Nneoma’s affection and
attention turned only to females. Dancing in a club to make a
living, she had no contact whatsoever with her family who hadn’t
heard from her in three years. However, after being viciously
attacked by a girl who claimed she ‘took’ her girlfriend, a friend
advised Nneoma, whose life was clearly in a mess, to visit T.B.
Joshua’s church in Lagos for help.
“When the Wise Man prayed for me, I felt an electric shock
pulsating through my entire body” Nneoma recounted her
experience.
The ‘demon’ that spoke through the young Nigerian said it was ‘a
great lesbian’and had tormented her life. In a remarkable twist of
fate, Nneoma’s brother Emmanuel who had not seen her for
three years was in The SCOAN congregation that very day.
“I always used to put Nneoma’s picture on the screen of
Emmanuel TV when T.B. Joshua prayed. I was so shocked
to see her in the church that day,” Emmanuel explained,
adding that he was hearing this confession from Nneoma
for the very first time.
T.B. Joshua pledged to support Nneoma in her education so as to
enable her to start a new life. In the wake of Nigeria’s recent
anti-gay law, T.B. Joshua courted controversy in January 2014
when he declared that homosexuals should not be condemned.
“Judge not, so that you will not be judged. We should talk
to people to be saved and not to die. I mean, we should talk
salvation, not condemnation. The Bible is my standard,” he
said in a Facebook post.“God hates sin, not sinners. When I
say, ‘Do not judge so that you will not be judged’, I mean
we should hate sin, not the sinner because sinners can
change. If you have killed a sinner by judging him, there will
be no opportunity for change. Sinners can be delivered.
We should hate the act, not the people because our battle
is not against flesh and blood but against the ‘spirit
beings’ that cause all these acts.”
He clearly distanced himself however from the notion that he
supported a homosexual lifestyle, saying:
“If my parents were one, I would not have been given
birth to. Those that are asking this question – if your
parents were one, you would not have been given birth to.
You that are reading me – if your parents were one, you
would not be reading this today. God bless the reader and
the hearer.”
